Use LAN Setup to set the router’s IP Address and Subnet Mask. The LAN IP address
allows you to connect the router to your LAN. This address also allows you to manage the
router from your LAN. A LAN (Local Area Network) connects computers in the same
building or area.
Subnet masks split one network into a set of mini networks or subnets. Subnetting helps to
reduce traffic on each subnet. Subnetting also makes the network more manageable. Each
subnet functions as if it were an independent network.
To set up the LAN…
1. Enter the LAN IP Address for the router to use on the network.
2. Enter the Subnet Mask for the network that the router connects to.
